Abstract
To minimise the nitrogen losses from the applied urea, the urea granul es have been coated with a synthetic polymer like urea form as well as a bio-polymer like Ca-alginate. Subsequently, the nitrogen release of the resultant urea granules in water have been studied over a period of 120 h. The corresponding experimental procedure and the results obt ained have been discussed.
